In ARC Raiders, you should now primarily fight against the ARC for 2 weeks and put your PvP efforts on the back burner.
Why should you shoot robots? A new event called “Shared Watch” started in ARC Raiders on February 10, 2026, running until February 24, with a focus on combating the ARC.
The developers of the extraction shooter remind you with the event of who the real enemy is and aim to promote player cooperation. As the name aptly describes, you should go on watch together and fight the nasty robots.
Those who diligently free the earth from the ARC can look forward to various rewards during the event.
ARC Raiders grants you rewards during the Shared Watch event
What kind of rewards are there? In total, there are 21 rewards that you can earn during the event by fighting against the ARC. These include:
- Items, such as a carabiner and a health spray
- Raider Tokens
- The new cosmetic set: The Bat (see title image)
- A blueprint for the augment “Tactical Mark 3 (Healing)”
- A guitar with which you can play music
The final reward available during the event is a helmet for Scrappy.
How to get the rewards: You unlock the rewards of the event through Merits. That is the blue currency you earn for completing daily challenges. During the event, you should collect Merits through XP for damaging and destroying ARCs.
You will receive the individual rewards in order. You must first collect one item before you can unlock the next. For all rewards, you will need over 1,000 Merits.
